“His manner with those who are bruised, and burnt beyond use, will be to gently work with them, until the Truth of God is established and bearing fruit.”
Beautiful. I can testify He has done/is doing this with me. I honestly believe if He can do it for me He can do it for ANYONE! Don’t despair you bruised reeds, all you dimly burning wicks. “He does not treat us as our sins deserve.”
That is truly the way Jesus is. He will see a little spark and protect it and blow on it. If someone is hurt, but trying to come to Him, He will help them. I think that Freepers could learn to be like this with those who are politically lost, too. If they are showing just a little spark of Conservative thinking, rather than judging them according to their past, we should welcome them and fan their spark. Too often Freepers seem to specialize in being judgmental.
